BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KERO) — A judge's decision in San Diego could impact a lawsuit filed here in Kern County.

Recently 35 local restaurants banded together to file a lawsuit regarding the governor's recent regional stay-at-home order which paused outdoor dining and the impact it's having on local restaurants.
